Habitat: Houston, TX. Found on semi-maintained lawn-style grass in relatively wet conditions.
Appearance:




Spore print color: In the process.
Bruising: Does not seem to bruise blue
Thanks in advance These look sort of like what I've seen in pictures of Pan Cinctulus... I am a noob at this though. But they do not seem active to me. Will post spore prints later.

They look like Panaeolus cinctulus to me. Wait on spore print.

I suppose those could be P. cinctulus, but to me they appear more like P. papilionaceus... will a spore print even help on that?

no, but i don't generally find those on lawn grass, and hadn't considered it. they certainly don't strike me as papilionaceus.

thanks. never tried them before. what is an appropriate dose? when I take PFtek cubes I generally take 1.5-2.5 grams. Also, just want to verify once more that those are the same species? no oddballs in there?

The dose is pretty high for lawn cinctulus.Usually around one fresh ounce or up to 10gm. dried for a nice experience.You will find more if you keep that area watered! And there are no oddballs in your collection,just make sure all the spore prints are black.

That's the almost same way I found my first patch, riding my bike over to a friends looked down and bam there they were. Crappy thing about grass subbs is the dose; start at about 30.

i wouldnt mind trying these but shit, its alot of weak mushrooms you have to eat!! i tried getting high off P pelliculosa last year and i just got sick of eating so many. when i have cyans and libs sitting there that i can get high of like 10 cyans or 25 libs. i am sitting there munching a fuckin huge handful and it was weaker than a P stuntzii high for sure.

You appreciate Pan cincts allot more when they are the only actives growing in your area. Sure there weak but my stomach can handle lots of mushroom matter so it isn't a problem for me. OP, you should start at 8g dried but if they are pretty potent it could be an intense experience.

Found a lot more today in the same general area! Probably over 50 specimens total. They seem to like lawn grass underneath shade in certain spots that collect water from sprinklers. I have taken spore prints. Can I simply put these spores into a water solution and spray the water all over areas that look conducive to cincts? or is it more complicated than that?

Yes.

You can use more complicated methods which have a greater chance of success, however if you just want to spend a few minutes, spore water is the way to go.
If you want something more sure, spore print -> agar -> grain -> pasteurized horse dung, then fruit indoors in a FC or make an outdoor bed.
I am pretty sure that your mushrooms are P. cinctulus. The lookalikes are non-toxic in any case.

Thanks for all the feedback, everyone. Taking more prints from the ones I found today.
How long should I expect to wait after I spray the areas before they begin to fruit?

Also, I don't have access to a scale currently. I'm not going to dose them anytime soon, but just for curiosity's sake I thought I would ask if anyone could give me a ballpark estimate of what the dried weight will be? Its about 55 mushrooms total
